ENID, Okla. — An Enid teenager remained hospitalized Wednesday afternoon after undergoing surgery for injuries he suffered during a fight with another student on school grounds.

The Enid Public Schools Police Department report called the incident “aggravated battery” and a “hate/bias” incident.

A family friend, who talked to the victim’s mother, said the 14-year-old boy suffered a fractured cheek and needed surgery to put in a plate.

The victim’s mother did not return our calls but she is expressing her anger on social media.

“She is devastated. She’s not sleeping, of course,” family friend Joy Buckminster said.

The boy’s mother posted a photo of him on Facebook, in the hospital with blood on his face.

The fight happened at Longfellow Middle School in Enid Tuesday afternoon.
